The Sino-Indian border war of 1962 forms a major landmark in South
Asian, Asian and Cold War history. Among others, it resulted in an
unresolved conflict permanently hindering rapprochement between
China and India, the establishment of the Sino-Pakistani axis, the
deepening of the Sino-Soviet split and had a lasting impact on
Indian domestic affairs. This volume draws on new documentary
evidence to re-evaluate perceptions, motivations and
decision-making processes of both antagonists, but also of third
powers immediately affected by the conflict. It also investigates
the effect on India's internal politics, its Constitution, the
Communist Party of India and the fate of Indians of Chinese origin.
Finally, it analyses how the conflict is viewed in India today and
its ramifications for India-China relationship. A major
intervention in the Asian historical landscape, this book will be
indispensable to scholars and researchers of modern history,
especially of modern South Asia and China, international relations,
defence and strategic studies, international politics and
government. It will also be useful for think-tanks and government
agencies.
